Live-in Caregiver
 There are many different types of live-in care. Some patients need care
for a short period of time. Others may need a long-term caregiver. Still,
others may need end-of-life care.
 Respite care is designed to give an existing caregiver a break. These
caregivers might stay for a short period of time while the primary
caregiver goes on vacation. On the other hand, a live-in respite
caregiver could offer care during the night or while the main caregiver
goes to work. Caring for a loved one is stressful. Respite caregivers
help alleviate stress and anxiety by offering the main caregiver a chance
to rest.
